A few years ago, I bought 4x16 GB of ddr4-3200 memory for like ~$200. The same memory sticks are now worth $600. What the fuck?

Nvidia has purchased billions of dollars worth of RAM modules that have yet to be manufactured so they can put them in AI cards that have yet to be fabricated so they can be installed in server farms that haven’t been built yet. They did this using money they don’t have yet from profits they haven’t generated yet from a service that supposedly solves a problem they haven’t identified yet.
Don’t worry, the entire economy is currently betting the house that this situation will pay off. If not, we’ll just have a quick little economic depression on our hands. Nothing a little World War III economy won’t solve
